Hello there lovely readers!
Tis been a productive one down this end with moi finally taking on the task I've been holding off for weeks...organising my polishes. It was a wee bit
daunting...& I needed to lie down afterwards...but I did it! No
longer am I finding polishes by the tv, under the bed, in teacups,
within the kitchen cupboards (yup, that's right) but all are happily
tucked away in some fab & cheap drawer storage I picked up in
Asda's no less. I would of course love to own a helmer for all my
polish storage needs but I just lack the space so these suit me fine,
I may even do a post sometime?
Moving on I wanted to share with you
lovelies one of the nail polish combos I am loving at the moment featuring an
old favourite of mine plus a super fabulous funky topcoat that is
simply stunning! The trusty favourite in question is my good ol'
Barry M Indigo & the special little topcoat is Maybelline's Flash
Cosmic.
Starting with that lush Barry M Indigo,
this was one of the first Barry M shades I bought into my collection
& my love for it is still going strong! A beautiful, vibrant pick
me up purple blue, its one of those fab shades that just lifts up my
mood so much, I adore it! This was a rush mani jobby so only one coat
was applied however as you can probably tell it definitely is a two
coater for a fully opaque finish.
Now to this little gem of a topcoat, I
don't own many Maybelline polishes but I'm loving a lot of their
recent additions especially the Polka Dots range which I recently
blogged about. Flash Cosmic has actually been around for donkey's yet
only now have I been giving it the loving it truly deserves.
A gorgeous iridescent pearly blue glitter suspended in a cloudy base which dries clear, it gives the prettiest opal like sparkle to the nails, a really fab way to jazz up any polish colour & I'm loving it with the Barry M Indigo! I've recently worn it over a pale lilac too & the finish was so beautiful!

I anticipate this little topcoat will
be getting a lot of usage, can't wait to try it over a spectrum of
different colours!
Thanks as always for reading dolls.
Have you tried Flash Cosmic? Do you have any favourite nail polish combos at the
moment?
Lotsa love to ya!
I think the Indigo actually looks pretty damn good for one coat here :) really opaque! The top coat definitely adds something really special to this! xx
